I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Irvine Company (Irvine, CA) in Jan 2012
Interview
they gave me an interview, passed me on to the second on the same day, gave me training/benefits package, asked when i could start and i informed immediately since i was unemployed at the time; i got a same day with the RM and that was it. Never heard back from them. I decline 3 job offers because they left me under the impression that i was offered the position. After blowing up thier phones to see what the status was, i recieve an email ONE WEEK LATER giving me thier "regret to inform" me message...in an EMAIL, not even a phone call...VERY PROFESSIONAL, irvine company. Apparently, it's common that they do this...
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
what would you do if a prospect or future resident said no to you?
Very generic and almost just going off a script. You usually start with a screen call with a recruiter and then if you do well, you’ll interview at the community you applied for.

I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Irvine Company (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
First and only interview was less than 10 minutes. Interviewed directly with the hiring manager and was only asked 2-3 simple questions about my precious experience, and a situational question such as “how would you deal with an upset resident”. Overall very simple. They either knew the type of person they wanted to represent their company, or they’re just easy going and don’t require too much from a person in terms of interview questions. Some companies are crazy anal about small little details of how the dialogue went.
